November the 16th is the anniversary of the passing of Haji Anne according to the Western calender. Here in the Dergah we finished several Khatims of Quran and read Mawlid and distributed sweets and food. Whoever wants to share in the blessing can read 3x Ikhlas and 1x Fatiha for her blessed soul. Amin.

Tajalliat - تجلّيات

14-Dec-2012

The jewels of Divine knowledge overflowing in Mawlana's presence cannot be always captured by a camera. So Mawlana gave us permission to write down for those who appreciate...

To use the plural formula in prayer is always more acceptable. To say, "Hasbuna Allah - حسبنا الله" is higher than saying, "Hasbiya Allah- حسبي الله". To say, "Rabbana - ربنا" is more acceptable than saying, "Rabbi- ربي". In Fatiha Allah (swt) says, "It is You we worship and You we ask for help - ", and not, "I worship and I ask for help". Also, in the Quran it says, "And they said: Hasbuna Allah We Ni'ma Al-Wakil - حسبنا الله و نعم الوكيل", for all the Sahabah / The Companions.

The Last Wednesday of Safar

09-Jan-2013

Today is the last Wednesday of Safar AlKhayr. Mawlana said that it is the heaviest day of the year and said to pray 4 rak'ats after Dhuhr. In the first rak'at you read 3x surat "Al-Kafirun" after Fatiha and in the second you read 3x surat "Al-Ikhlas"; and you repeat. Then 70x Istighfar and 70x Hasbuna Allah wa Ni'ma-l Wakil.

Christmas

25-Dec-2012

On the occasion of the night before Christmas, Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Al-Haqqani would like to extend his best wishes to His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI for a blessed Christmas and a peaceful New Year. Mawlana would also like to ask His Holiness why he thinks it is that Muslims believe in and love Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) while Christians do not believe in or respect the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)?
